I guess the evil oil and natural gas companies have been fracking for a lot longer than most people realize. A cursory internet search revealed several towns known for many years as "Burning Springs". (There are undoubtedly many more of them.)

In New York:

"Natural gas springs. The gas was formed when organic material was caught in-between layers of mud millions of years ago when this region was covered by a shallow ocean. The organic material decayed and was subject to intense pressure, forming natural gas, which became trapped within layers of shale rock. The ravine in the region cuts through the gas-rich layers of shale and the gas leaks out. French explorer Robert de La Salle, was brought by the Seneca of the village of Ganagaro in August of 1669 to inspect the spring."

In Kentucky:

"Burning Springs is an unincorporated community in Clay County, Kentucky, United States.[1] It is located along U.S. Route 421 by its junction with Kentucky Route 472.[2] It has one school, Burning Springs Elementary. It is about 4 miles from Jackson County but about 7 miles from Manchester, the county seat."

In West Virginia:

"Several locations in West Virginia have been named Burning Springs. Two of the best known were at springs that contained traces of gas and that could be ignited. Such springs were long regarded as natural wonders, but became important as hallmarks of oil, salt, and natural gas in the 1800s."

Like most Hollywood political agenda movies it’s a flop. It opened at #10. Might as well set a match to it, as it were.

And why should Abu Dhabi support be a surprise when, according to former Manhattan Borough President, attorney to Malcolm X, Louis Farrakhan, and Nation of Islam, Percy Sutton, Obama’s College Education was funded by Prince Alwaleed bin-Talal, who also happens to be the largest private owner of News Corp/Fox News/WSJ stock? The legal counsel through whom this was arranged, according to Sutton, has been funding Wahhabi projects for at least thirty five years. The connection to the Saudi Family, according to Valerie's father-in-law, Vernon Jarrett in a Chicago Tribute article about Khalid al-Mansour/Don Warden, written in 1979, began at least in the early 1980s, though Mansour/Don Warden implies in what Youtube interviews haven't yet been scrubbed, that it began when Obama was still living in Hawaii. (Mansour describes meeting with Obama at Occidental, but talks, before publication of Obama's second autobiography, about Obama's decsion in Hawaii about the advantages of presenting himself as an African American.)

Vernon Jarrett was a close friend and colleague of Marshall Davis for several decades, Obama’s future surrogate(?) father, when both Jarrett and Davis were card carrying communists, and columnists for several Chicago Newspapers. When FBI surveillance caused Davis to move to Hawaii in the late 50s they stayed close. There is little doubt that Sutton, and Don Warden/Khalid al-Mansour were well acquainted with both of them, as Warden/Mansour was a founder of the Black Panthers, and an eloquent black nationalist, Berkeley educated attorney, and former law partner to bin-Talal (who never had a law degree), but who openly funded Wahhabi recruiting in US Prisons, and later funded most of the Mosques in the US.

Saudi funding goes much deeper than just another propaganda movie to insure oil revenue for the Saudis. Sutton was proud to have helped get Obama into Harvard Law, but the twenty million dollar donation by Alwaleed bin-Talal may have had more to do with it. Harvard got twice what bin-Talal offered New York, and Giuliani rejected, as alms for his countrymen’s murder of 3000+ and the destruction of the World Trade Center. After the twenty million in 1987, bin-Talal funded what is now the largest division of Harvard Divinity School, the Alwaleed bin-Talal Center for Islamic Study - look it up! He has now expanded it to Georgetown, American University, and four or five other institutions here and in England. What with Obama beholden to, and openly supporting the Saudi-funded Muslim Brotherhood, John Brennan, who was funded by the Saudis for several years after leaving the CIA, and who has spent five years next to Obama in the White House, having his employee "cauterize" Obama's State Department paper passport and citizenship files (which probably led to the murder of Lieutenant Quarles while he was presumably cooperating with the FBI) being appointed CIA director may be crowning achievement of Saudi infiltration.
